She told TOI, "In our country, women are eternally blamed. They are accused when a girl child is born, they are even accused when they are raped. So, somewhere I knew that I will also have to face a lot of heat. After all, it's easy for some faceless and redundant people to pull a celebrity down at the first opportunity. I've done shoots like this one when I was a model. I've gone topless and naked, too. No one ever asked me about that. And who are these people who have 'issues' with my pictures? It's my body and it's been shot aesthetically. There's a thin line, which if you cross, you look vulgar. No one can say my pictures are vulgar. I got more love than hate, but it's better to be hated than to be forgotten. And right now, I'm in my best shape. Although we knew where this could lead, we thought, 'If not now, then when?"
Esha Gupta further told TOI, "Men tend to have a problem if a woman goes bold. Their manhood is challenged. They are prudes; they must have even saved these pictures on their phone. And here we are in the country of Ajanta and Ellora, and Kamasutra, objecting to a woman's photo-shoot, which she has done on her own will. So, my attitude is, 'S'''w them', and that's the point I wanted to make. The pictures turned out so beautiful that I didn't want to hold them back. The thing is that I've been comfortable and confident about my body all along."
These bold images of Esha Gupta are setting the internet on fire!
Marking her Bollywood debut with the 2012 film 'Jannat 2', Esha Gupta went on to feature in films like 'Raaz 3', 'Chakravyuh', 'Humshakals', 'Rustom' and 'Commando 2'.
Esha Gupta is all geared up for her upcoming film 'Baadshaho' that releases on September 1.
